Healthy 100 Calorie Double Fudge Banana Muffins

These secretly healthy muffins are great for breakfast or a healthy snack! Low sugar, low fat, and low carb, and gluten free, but high chocolatey goodness.

This was inevitable. I mean, I've already made Secretly Healthy Banana Bread with chocolate chips. You would think that adding more chocolate would be a no-brainer.

Well, a brain I may not have, but tastebuds I do have in abundance, and eventually their pleading and crying led to to this inevitable creation.

I used Hershey's Special Dark Cocoa which is a blend of natural and dutched cocoa powder so it's extra chocolatey (update: sadly my favorite cocoa has been hard to find lately, but I have been loving this one from Amazon!).

In an attempt at health, I used applesauce instead of oil or butter and cut down on the sugar. I also used this oat flour which is gluten-free, and has less calories and more fiber and protein than all-purpose flour. Feel free to switch it out for all-purpose if you must though. 

If my calculations are correct, muffins made in a regular tin should be about 100 calories each and muffins made in a jumbo tin should be about 200 calories each. Add about 37 calories for each regular sized muffin for every 1/3 cup of chocolate chips added to the batter. But seriously, who's counting?
